Autumn Activities for Rainy Days

The first activity is a painting project. Hannah and I discussed the changing (and falling) leaves in our backyard, and the various colors we saw. I used finger paint, and each color had a dedicated plate and champagne cork. You could also use wooden stamps, cut up sponges, or fingerprints for older kids. I painted the tree trunk and let it dry for a few minutes before we started.

This is how I stored the activity on our shelves:
